...Pudding alleged that the Lampoon door-dropped 500 fake punch invitations Sunday night to first-years in the Yard and Union dorms. From Hollis to Hurlbut halls, first-years trekked down to the Hasty Pudding clubhouse for what the false invitation described as a "cocktail party for prospective members...
TORONTO: Could patients be developing an immunity to parts of the chemical cocktail that has proven so effective in fighting HIV? The announcement to this effect by Dr. Steven Deeks, a University of San Francisco AIDS researcher, that people might be developing an immunity to the protease inhibitors Crixivan and Norvir has left many questioning whether the highly-expensive treatment would remain worthwhile.

She is passionately apathetic, as if to spite her father, who demonstrated against the war from the City College of New York to Berkeley and who by his own count was arrested "about 11 times." But isn't there still poverty and inequity...
